I'm getting ready to convert the 15mm shaft Chinese belt drive to bearings,
using a special rubber sealed needle roller bearing, like this:
This bearing carries heavy loads, perfect for the drive, and best of all, it's
a slip fit over the 15mm motor shaft, no mod to the shaft required. I
learned a lot converting the drive to an Olite bushing so I know how to
finish off the design. This is a permanent greased-sealed bearing
solution that I like better than the Grubee 4G belt drive which uses
two sealed bearings. His design is elegant, but the result is a very
fat belt drive which requires super-wide cranks. This solution should be
just as durable as the Grubee design and far more compact. This bearing
is good to 11K rpm.
